What Is Panax Ginseng and How Does It Work?

Panax Ginseng may benefit diabetes, cognition, and other conditions.

One of the many types of ginseng used in herbal medicine is Panax ginseng. The ginseng plant grows in the East Asian mountains, where its roots are harvested and used to make ginseng teas and supplements.

Each type of ginseng is thought to have different healing properties in traditional Chinese medicine. Some types of Panax ginseng, for example, are said to have "warming" properties that aid blood flow.

This article digs deeper into Panax ginseng and the health benefits it may provide. It also explains how to use Panax ginseng, as well as possible side effects and what to look for when purchasing it.

What Is the Purpose of Panax Ginseng?

Ginsenosides, the active compounds in Panax ginseng, are thought to have a steroid-like effect in the body, reducing inflammation.1

Panax ginseng has been used to boost the immune system and increase energy and stamina since ancient times.

Although there is little research on Panax ginseng today, there is some evidence that the herb may have some health benefits.

Here are some of the most important research findings:

Diabetes management

Panax ginseng can help with diabetes management. In a 2014 review, scientists looked at 16 studies that looked at how ginseng affects blood glucose levels in diabetics and non-diabetics. 2

The majority of the studies lasted less than 12 weeks and included people who had relatively good blood sugar control. Even though ginseng significantly improved fasting blood sugar levels in both diabetics and non-diabetics, the authors concluded that more research is needed.

Cognition

According to a 2015 research review of the health benefits of ginseng, Panax ginseng has been shown to improve cognitive performance, particularly short-term memory.

In addition, a 2018 study found that older adults who took ginseng supplements for five years or longer had improved cognition

The root's antioxidant properties are thought to be responsible for these cognitive benefits, as well as many other ginseng health benefits.

Erectile Dysfunction

Erectile Dysfunction (ED) is a condition that affects men.

Panax ginseng may be an effective and safe treatment for erectile dysfunction, according to a review of six research trials conducted over a 15-year period.

Panax ginseng was also found to be the only dietary supplement that improved erectile function without posing any safety concerns in another study of alternative medicines for sexual function.

Unlike prescription erectile dysfunction drugs, which are typically taken only when needed, ginseng appears to be effective for erectile dysfunction only when taken on a regular basis.

Other Situations

Despite its reputation as a "cure-all," Panax ginseng may not be suitable for all conditions. Panax ginseng, for example, has not been found to be effective in reducing hot flashes or increasing athletic endurance in studies.

Furthermore, despite numerous studies on the benefits of ginseng, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) states that more research is needed to prove that ginseng is beneficial for a variety of other conditions, including:-

• Anemia
• Bronchitis
• Cancer
• Chronic fatigue syndrome
• Cold and flu
• Depression
• Digestive problems
• Fever
• Fibromyalgia

Possible Negative Consequences

Ginseng is widely used and even found in beverages, giving the impression that it is completely safe. It can, however, have side effects, just like any other herbal supplement or medication.

The following are some of the more commonly reported side effects:

• Insomnia

• Headaches

• Insomnia

Panax ginseng may affect blood pressure, so unless your doctor tells you otherwise, you should avoid it if you have high blood pressure (hypertension).Panax ginseng has the potential to lower blood sugar levels while also having the potential to interact with diabetes medications. If you have diabetes and are considering using it, consult your doctor first.

Panax ginseng should be avoided by children, pregnant women, and nursing mothers.

Interactions Between Drugs and Supplements

Panax ginseng can increase the risk of bleeding by amplifying the effects of blood-thinning medications. If you're taking an anticoagulant or antiplatelet drug, such as warfarin, clopidogrel, ticlopidine, heparin, or aspirin, consult your doctor before trying ginseng.

Because some herbal supplements have been known to cause bleeding, combining ginseng with them can increase the risk of bleeding.

Panax ginseng has the potential to alter the levels of chemicals that carry messages from nerve cells to other cells, as well as interact with antipsychotic drugs like chlorpromazine.

Panax ginseng has been found to interfere with the processing of drugs by the CYP3A4 enzyme.

Check with your doctor to see if you're taking any of these medications.
